This scoping review aimed to map reported animal rabies cases, identify key reservoir species, and assess gaps in surveillance coverage in mainland Tanzania from 1993 to 2023. Specifically, it addressed the distribution of cases, species involved, and the extent of surveillance coverage during this period. Literature searches in PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct were screened using Rayyan. Twenty articles published between 1993 and 2023 reported 7319 animal rabies cases across the Northern Zone (NZ), Southeastern Zone (SEZ), and Coastal Zone (CZ). In the NZ, domestic dogs accounted for most cases (5387), followed by jackals (225), cats (77), livestock (311), and various wildlife species including African wild dogs, bat-eared foxes, lions, cheetahs, and striped hyenas. Additionally, 102 cases involved unidentified animals. In SEZ, domestic dogs (588) were the primary source, followed by jackals (262), hyenas (8), cats (10), honey badgers (5), and leopards (2). In CZ, domestic dogs accounted for 94 cases. The findings confirm domestic dogs as the main rabies reservoir, highlighting the need for strengthened surveillance and control. The role of wildlife in rabies maintenance and spillover remains poorly understood and warrants further investigation, especially in enzootic hotspots.</p>","PeriodicalId":19758,"journal":{"name":"Pathogens","volume":"14 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12472511/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145177207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The papillomavirus E2 gene encodes a multifunctional protein responsible for regulating transcription and replication by recruiting viral and host factors to the viral DNA genome. Our lab has previously reported that tyrosine 102 may impact bovine (BPV) and human (HPV) viral replication in cell culture systems. This tyrosine is conserved in the E2 protein of the murine papillomavirus MmuPV1. To investigate how this amino acid impacts the MmuPV1 lifecycle in vivo, we generated potential phosphorylation mimetic (Y102E) and phosphorylation deficient (Y102F) mutants in the E2 open reading frame. The Y102F mutant protein supported both transcriptional activation and transient replication, while Y102E was defective. However, Y102E was capable of associating with E1 and the Brd4 C-terminal motif. When these E2-mutated MmuPV1 genomes were introduced into the skin of immunocompromised mice, only Y102F was capable of inducing papilloma development and production of infectious progeny virus. These findings demonstrate that while highly conserved, tyrosine at this position is not required by the virus.

Finally, based on β-giardin immunomagnetic beads were prepared using the polyclonal antibodies and tested for their enrichment efficiency. Immunomagnetic beads targeting β-giardin achieved 65% cyst enrichment efficiency in fecal samples, comparable to conventional methods. Clinical evaluation across 163 multi-host fecal samples (ferrets, Siberian tigers, red-crowned cranes) demonstrated concordance with nested PCR, successfully enriching cysts from PCR-positive specimens.
